Proceeds go towards helping to maintain your community’s natural resource, Autrey Mill Nature Preserve and Heritage Center.

The Autrey Mill Nature Preserve Association is a nonprofit (501)(c3) organization that operates the preserve and historic buildings and provides all the environmental, heritage and event programming for the public. 

The beginnings of Autrey Mill date to a 1988 grassroots effort by community advocates to save the woodlands from development, prevent the loss of the old mill site, and halt the demolition of historic buildings situated on the property. In 1989 the Autrey Mill Nature Preserve Association, Inc. was formed as a non-profit organization to operate, protect and improve the preserve.

This promises to be a wonderful night of music and community. Come on out!
